One of my favorite songs EVER.
The Presidents - Sung by Yakko, Wakko and Dot
Heigh ho!
Do you know,
The names of the US Residents
Who then became the Presidents
And got a view from the White House loo
Of Pennsylvania Avenue
George Washington was the first, you see
He once chopped down a cherry tree
President number two would be
John Adams and then Number three
Tom Jefferson stayed up to write
The Constitution late at night
So he and his wife had a great big fight
And she made him sleep on the couch all night
James Madison never had a son
And he fought the War of 1812
James Monroe's colossal nose
Was bigger than Pinnochio's
John Quincy Adams was number six
And it's Andrew Jackson's butt he kicked
So Jackson learns to play politics
Next time he's the one that the country picks
Martin Van Buren number eight
For a one term shot as chief of state
William Harrisson, how do you praise
That guy was dead in thirty days!
John Tyler he liked country folk
And after him came President Polk
Zachary Taylor liked to smoke
His breath killed friends whenever he spoke
1850, really nifty
Millard Fillmore's in
Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce
The man without a chin
Follows next a period spannin'
Four long years with James Buchanan
Then the South start shootin' cannon
And we've got a civil war
A war!
A war down south in Dixie!
Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln
There's a guy who's really thinkin'
Kept the United States from shrinking
Saved the ship of state from sinking
Andrew Johnson's next
He had some slight defects
Congress each
Would impeach
And so the county now elects
Ulysees Simpson Grant
Who would scream and rave and rant
While drinking whiskey
Although risky
Cause he'd spill it on his pants
It's 1877 and the democrats would gloat
But they're all amazed when Rutherford Hayes
Wins by just one vote
James Garfield, someone really hated
Cause he was assasinated
Chester Arthur gets instated
Four years later he was traded
For Grover Cleveland, really fat
Elected twice as a democrat
Then Benjamin Harrisson after that
It's William McKinley up at bat
Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill
And President Taft he got the bill
In 1913 Woodrow Wiiilllllllson
Takes us into World War One
Warren Harding he does fine
It's Calvin Coolidge next in line
And then in 1929
The market crashes and we find
It's Herbert Hoover's big debut
He gets the blame and loses to
Franklin Roosevelt, President who
Helped us win in World War Two
Harry Truman, weird little human
Serves two terms and when he's done
It's Eisenhower who's got the power
From '53 to '61
John F. Kennedy, he gets shot
So Lyndon Johnson takes his spot
Richard Nixon he gets caught
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot
Jimmy Carter liked camping trips
And Ronald Regan's speeches' scripts
All came from famous movie clips
And President Bush said "read my lips"
Now in Washington D.C.
It's democrats and the G.O.P.
But the one in charge is plain to see
Its Clinton, first name Hilary
The next President to lead the way
Well, it just might be yourself one day
Then the press'll distort everything you say
So jump in your plane and fly away
